Tarraleah Lodge offers a number of guided activities. Explore the beautiful highland lakes on a kayak or bike ride along canals and through the surrounding forests. We offer an introduction to fly fishing tutorial or a full day tour with a local expert. Then at the end of the day, join a whisky tasting and sample from our collection of over 100 international whiskys.
Tarraleah Lodge boasts more than 150 fine malt whiskies from around the world. We offer visitors the opportunity to take a guided tasting with the Keepers of the Whisky Keys….. A great opportunity for those with a taste for malt. Participants enjoy 6 tastes of whisky from across the word which takes about an hour – even longer if your tongue loosens on that last dram at 60%.
Take your whisky experience further and try a selection of our rarest whiskies. Top shelf only aged 30 years or more. Approximately an hour.
